Sew Baby Moccasins!

M is for moccasins!

Gathering leather from thrift store finds was fun--I looked through sections with purses, planners, pants, and jackets. I have also heard of people purchasing scraps of leather by the pound, from furniture stores.When I started out I followed Kelly's free baby moccasin tutorial and free pattern, from Sewing In No Mans Land, here. After one or two pairs, I got the hang of it a little better and enjoyed trying new details with the fringe and other little details--hearts, bows, etc.
